Sunday afternoon in Ottawa

So, the rain finally relented and I got a chance to get out and walk around Ottawa. I walked south down the Rideau to the market area and on a Sunday morning it was hopping! People and dogs were everywhere. Just like France it seems Ottawa is a Dog town.( why is french so common in Ottawa? ) The smell of the Market was awesome. Fresh organic fruit and vegetables were in the air, I could smell coffee and pastries. There is a Canadian delicacy called the Beaver tail, i guess in America its a churro ( from Mexico ) but in Canada they stretch it out and flatten it and put flavors on it. ( thanks to Debbie for showing Beaver tail ) Last year in Sydney it was meat pie and this year in Ottawa its Beaver.
